| From The Age Reported by Brent Diamond Full article Click here A SPEEDY Northern Bullants are set to test reigning premier North Ballarat's pace in Friday night's VFL grand final after making Port Melbourne appear slow in its upset 21-point preliminary final victory at TEAC Oval yesterday. Carlton speedster Chris Yarran was flashy and best on ground with five goals and 25 disposals, providing a backbone for what could be the beginning of an ominous 2010 campaign. Yarran, who was the No. 6 selection in the 2008 AFL draft, and his Blues sidekick Jeff Garlett, controlled proceedings in a dominant second term where the Bullants piled on six unanswered goals to steer a nine-point quarter-time buffer out to 43-points at the main break. Bullants coach David Teague believes Yarran and Garlett - who loom as the Bullants' secret weapons - will be even more effective at Etihad Stadium on Friday night. |
